Print and Bake: Mum & Gran Doodle + Cake

Dear readers, you must be warned. This is not going to be the post of a spectacular pouf but rather a simple project it came to mind just a few days ago. We do not celebrate Mother's Day in Mexico until May. However, and unafraid as I am to put my hands on new cooking ventures, I wanted to take this opportunity and take my mum by surprise.

This drawing is based on my mum and gran and how they communicate with each other. As you can see, they are not holding hands. They are just there, standing together. Below it reads in Spanish "This is the love I think my mum has for my grandmother". In equal basic principle, I decided to bake an easy Madeira cake, my first cake ever. It all started one day before on Saturday 9th, gathering all ingredients which are pretty basic: eggs, flour, bake power, lemon, butter and thyme. That same night I finished colouring the card on illustrator and finally bake the cake this very morning.

Here's a small graphic that illustrates both cooking and illustration processes:

I have an undergraduate in History of Art and an MA in Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship at Goldsmiths College. This blog shows the drawings and projects I've been working on. Most of them, as you can see, involves Fabulous Poufs.
